The John Kerry Post of the Day

My latest discovery about my favorite cheese-eating surrendermonkey-looking Ketchup King cum Presidential candidate:

Let's stay in the sports world and honor the Red Sox, Senator Condiment's favorite team. Turns out he even lies about them...

John Kerry has spoken many times of his agonized presence at Game 6 of the 1986 World Series:

"I was 30 yards away from Billy Buckner in that famous Shea Stadium game in '86." (Cite:
ESPN Page 2)

"Talking baseball on the plane, he reminisced, "I was at Shea Stadium, 30 yards from Bill Buckner," recalling the error that many consider cost the Sox the 1986 World Series." (Cite: "Sox Detour for Kerry", New York Daily News, 7/26/2004)

"The Bay State senator says he....watched in anguish as the ball rolled through Bill Buckner's legs in the 1986 Series against the Mets." (Cite: "Bogus Bosox Fan", New York Post, 9/19/2004)

"I was about 30 yards away from Billy Buckner when that ball wiggled away" (Cite: Kerry tries to rejuvenate his campaign, USA Today 11/24/2003)

Game 6 of the 1986 World Series was held in New York City, on the evening of October 25, 1986.

According to the Boston Globe, John Kerry was at a banquet in Boston on the evening of October 25, 1986.

The site notes that Kerry was probably at Game Seven. But what kind of fan confuses Game Six with Game Seven?
